From Fox News: President Donald Trump paused a busy Oval Office day to greet visiting children, handing out small gifts and saying, “My name is Donald,” in a sweet moment captured and shared online by communications advisor Margo Martin.
The short clip, viewed hundreds of thousands of times within hours of being posted, struck a lighter note during a packed news cycle after the government shutdown, giving supporters and critics alike a glimpse of the president’s softer side.
The video racked up nearly 500,000 views within two hours of being posted to Martin’s X account. Martin often shares behind-the-scenes footage of Trump that can’t be seen anywhere else.
In the video, a speaker off camera says, “He wants to know what your name is.”
“My name is Donald,” President Trump said, as the children giggled.
He handed them each a commemorative “challenge coin” and a presidential pen.
The four children were the grandchildren of journalist Salena Zito, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, “Butler,” a book about the attempted assassination of Trump in July 2024.
As of Thursday night, the video already had almost 1 million views.
